How a 24-year-old made $300,000 in 3 years – and counting

Do you remember how you celebrated your 21st birthday? Did you throw a big party, enjoy a holiday with friends, or perhaps splash out on a new car?

For investor Kej Kulane, he celebrated his 21st in a slightly different manner – by investing his savings into his own property education!

“I went to a seminar because I’d always wanted to invest in property, but I didn’t know how to go about it,” Kej explains.

“People throw money at a university education and don’t question it, but they think twice about investing in their property education. It’s something I’m passionate about and want to learn about, so I didn’t hesitate.”

With such a proactive attitude towards investing, Kej seemed destined to enjoy a successful property career.

But even he admits he didn’t expect it to go so well, so soon.

After meeting property mentor Todd Polke three years ago, Kej began looking at opportunities to buy in Sydney.

“I met Todd and I realized he knew property investing backwards, so I decided to go down that path of investing following his system,” he says.

“At the time, well-researched properties were available at good, affordable price points. I went on to do three deals – one is in Redbank Plains, Queensland and I have another two in Sydney, in Mt Druitt and Campbelltown.”

Incredibly, in the three short years since Kej began investing in property, his three investments combined have gone up in value by around $300,000!

Better still, he’s enjoying a strong positive cash flow from his portfolio – proving that you don’t have to sacrifice capital growth for cashflow, or vice versa.

One the key lessons that Kej learnt during his mentorship with Todd was the importance of having a clear investment strategy.

“It’s about having a proper structure. Rather than doing random things to try and get a result, like most investors do, you need to do things with purpose,” he explains.

“You may make some mistakes along the way, but as long as you learn from it you’ll be fine.”

Have a pre-determined goal to find positive cash flow investments led Kej to Redbank Plains, where he found a dual-key property that delivered a positive profit from day one.

“We can rent out both sides independently, so that’s been great for cashflow,” he says.

He’s not afraid to do things a little differently, he adds, which is why this unusual dual-key property was the perfect fit for his portfolio.

“For me, I’m always looking to find a way to go that little bit further. Todd’s coaching showed me that I wasn’t born to go to school, go to uni and retire at 75. I want to find a way to break that cycle and it’s by using property as a vehicle that I can achieve the lifestyle I want.”

Get as Educated as Possible

To anyone considering their first or next investment, Kej suggests you “get as educated as possible” before putting any money on the line.

Just like Todd, he says he’s passionate about ‘life design’, which is all about discovering what your goals are in life, and working out how property can be used as a vehicle to achieve those goals.

“You shouldn’t be afraid to go out and seek other people’s advice,” he adds.

“I always thought I knew a fair it about real estate; it wasn’t until I met Todd that I realised there was so much more to learn.”
